Question

[G_anders]

I'm looking to lease a 2005 325 ci. The asking price is alittle over 33,000.00 What can I expect to get the car for, when I negociate with the salesman. I'm going to order the car with white paint, black leatherette, and heated seats, thats it. What have some of you paid for your car and how much did you get off the sticker price. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome, aborad Garry!

what is the car in your configuration stickering at? you should be able to get a good deal on late model e46, as the new 3er just came out.

if you are getting heated seats, maybe you shoudl consider getting the full blown cold weather package, where you get headlight washers and pass through ski bag. (altho not having independant control over the headlight spray nozzle is no fun, it helps in bad weather condidions. (sure beats going out of your car in the freezing night to clear the headlights just to see what's ahead of you.) also, xenons is a really cool option to add, (just somethign to think about

What did you all do when you purchased your car Leased or bought it out right. I'm leaning towards leasing but I'm scared never leased before. Any suggestions?

First of all, you should be looking at a price under $31,715. That's in Milwaukee. Check www.carsdirect.com for a good price. I negotiated off that price when I bought my car.

Personally, I'm a big fan of the Sports Package, but you'll have to buy snow tires if you do. Might have to even if you don't get it. Anyways, I just think what you get is worth getting the sports package for. Stuff like the clear turn signals, the sports seats, steering wheel, etc.
